Judy Antone (class of '61)
Passed away on Sunday May 24, 2009.  A few of us had the
pleasure of visiting with Judy when Joanne Lawson came to
town in September 2007.   This photo of Judy with her
daughter Diane was taken at the gathering.

Judy was remembered by many as a special person who loved life. 
She had a big heart and a great sense of humor.  Those who knew
her will never forget her.

Our Sincere condolences to her daughters Diane & Lisa and the
rest of the Antone & Link Family!

Reuion 2010

Mary Beth has announced the next Reunion will be next year.  The actual date has not been set yet, so stay tuned.  We are looking for volunteers for the Reunion Committee.  The first thing on the agenda is to look for a new Hotel.  There were many people who were not pleased with the last place, The Best Western in Elk Grove, IL.  So if anyone is interested in helping Mary Beth locate another Hotel, please contact her at Mb_Wiley@yahoo.com  The sooner we find a hotel, the sooner she can post the date.

The "Sports" Albums are finally completed and are now posted, please visit our   "Our Photo Site"

For those who are not aware, once you're in the album that you want to view ... you can view all the photo's by selecting the "slideshow" option at the top left of the album page or just click on each photo as you go along and it will take you to the next photo ... etc. Any added information will be displayed under that photo.

Just remember some of the photo's were scanned from copies and depending on the texture of the original paper, will make a difference on how they appear.  If you notice any corrections with years & names or if you can help out with missing names, please contact Don Fitzgerald or myself.

Thank you for your patience and hope you enjoy the "Memories!"

P.S.
I received a number of photo's, from the Mother House in Indiana, from Alumni who attended the first Reunion hosted by the PHJC in 1999. There were a few people who had left pictures with them that were placed on display near the inside entrance of the Church. Although they were not marked, I am able to identify some.  If you remember leaving any photo's with them, please contact me, so that they may be returned to you!

November 29, 2008 - Roll Call Results

Roll Call has officially ended.  The "November Roll Call"  results have been posted. Thank you,
everyone who signed in to be counted for, we love hearing from you.    
 
We had 122 kids signing into the last roll call for the year... 67 from the girls cottages and 55 from the
boys cottages.  Check out to see who signed in, there are a lot of new and familiar names, this time around.    
Congratulations cottage 43, you took the lead "AGAIN" with 20 gals accounted for.  Cottage 30 took
the lead with 8 guys.  Click here to access link:    November 2008 Roll
 
A big thank you to Sandy for the time she  devotes to the Roll Call.  I know how time consuming it is,
trying to keep track of everyone with their cottages.  At least you can take a break for the remainder
of the year!!!

To those who are not aware, Don Fitzgerald has joined me as Co-Administrator of our Websites. 
Don has been a great help to me all along and was kind enough to offer his continued services, thus
freeing up some of my time to devote to the rest of our website /photosite.  Don is still in the process
of recovering from Cancer, so don't worry, I will try to take it easy on him.       "Thank You" Don!

Any questions or suggestions regarding our website can be directed to either one of us!

The "Class Years" links are finally completed.  As I mentioned before, these names were gathered
from the "Young People's Friends" articles, "Year Books" and "Class Pictures" that were
available to us.

Since the beginning of the Website, there have been several inquire's concerning classmates and other alumni, I hope this helps jog your memories of old friends. If anyone still has their "Commencement cards,"  "Year Books" or class photo's with names, that could help fill in some gaps, it would be appreciated!

If you know of anyone who may have left before "8th Grade" graduation, please contact us so they can be added.  Also, because there were some missing "High School Year Books," if you left before your class graduated, please let me know the last year you attended so that your info can be updated.

Graduation Photo's are still being added to some of the  classes and should be completed soon. 
Then we can proceed with the photosite!  Let's see how many of these kids you remember!
